Looking for CI CD tools? Let us introduce Octopus
Most CI CD tools can handle basic deployments. However, they often struggle with the complexities of CD at scale.
For many of those tools, deployments and CD is an afterthought.
That's what makes Octopus different. We've been a dedicated CD tool for over a decade and have helped thousands of customers automate and scale their deployments.
With Octopus you get:
- Seamless environment progression: Deployments to production are a non-event that 'just work'.
- Tenanted deployments: Deploy to thousands of unique customers or locations without duplication.
- Instant deployment status visibility: Easily monitor deployments across all environments on all stacks with the Octopus dashboard.
- Variable management: Safely manage variables for all environments.
- Runbooks: Automate day-0 and day-2 operations.
Trusted by thousands of teams to release, deploy, and operate software

You already have a CI/CD tool. Why do you need Octopus?
Let's start by addressing the elephant in the room. CI is not CD. Most all-in-one CI/CD tools weren't designed to handle the complexities of CD at scale.
1. When you’re starting out, your existing tool can probably handle the deployment basics
Tools like GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, GitLab CI, and Buildkite are great for Continuous Integration (CI).
Continuous Delivery (CD) functionality with these tools often means a basic ability to call a deployment script. At the start, that might get you by, but you need to create and maintain the deployment scripts yourself.
All-in-one tools are still a box of parts that need building – they don't 'just work' out of the box.
2. DIY shadow CD and YAML sprawl begins to spiral out of control
Your applications evolve and become more complex. Your deployment scripts become thousands of lines of code, and only a few people understand or are comfortable changing them. As you add more teams and applications, it becomes even more complex. Your 'all-in-one' CI/CD experience becomes CI with DIY shadow CD.

3. Unify software delivery for heritage, multi-cloud, hybrid-cloud, and cloud-native applications
Octopus takes over from 'artifact-forward' and handles the release, deployment, and operations of CD in advanced ways that no CI tool can. You get a dedicated Continuous Delivery platform with the consistency and reliability to deploy thousands of applications to all types of target hosts across your organization. Use Octopus Runbooks to automate day-1 and day-2 routine and emergency operations tasks and free your teams for more crucial work.
